It made its start in November 2009 as a weekly feature on freevideogamesite.com, and in March 2011 it made the transition to the front page of a small comics site called Bone Dragon Comics, where it started publishing on Tuesday and Saturday. |

3 | The strip follows the comedic adventures of Garnet Gardener and Gure Lewis, friends, roommates and occasionally partners in the Garnet and Gure Software Concern. Video gaming is a prominent theme for the characters, but over time there have been more and more forays into general nerd-dom, adult life and social topics. |

22 | * NakedPeopleAreFunny |
23 | * PlatonicLifePartners: Garnet and Gure may once have had sex, but [[http://bonedragoncomics.com/html/garnet_and_gure_50.html if they did, they don't remember.]] The sexless comfort they have with each other, to the point of wearing a tandem bath towel, has caused some to [[http://bonedragoncomics.com/html/garnet_and_gure_115.html speculate as to the nature of their relationship]]. |
24 | * ShoutOut: Most notably, the titles to the animated shorts are all derived from notorious video game lines. |
